New project

I finally got another Chevy truck. It is an 84 SWB 2wd. The body on it is solid. Perfect cab supports, rockers, and cab corners. It has nearly new tires on it too. The rust in the photos is mostly surface rust except on the passenger side door. The intake, carb, and distributor were stolen off it but I already have those parts. I traded a buddy an 87 fullsize Bronco that I picked up cheap. Of course it needs work, I wouldn't have been able to get a nice running truck, thank you wife

Re: New project

The back end sits low because the PO put those small pot metal twisty things in the front coil springs. I've only had it a day so I haven't taken them out yet. I have to say I never noticed it sitting low in the back until you mentioned it.

The blue stuff is masking tape. It's been on there for so long it won't come off like it's supposed to. I'll probably have to use steel wool to get it off. Thanks for the comments guys. I love these trucks and hopefully will be able to get this one going pretty soon.
